Richard Hamilton Out Wednesday, Maybe Longer

The Pistons have been almost coy as to the extent of Richard Hamilton's injury, calling it a day-to-day injury although it's been almost two weeks since he first injured it.  

It comes as no surprise then that Hamilton will miss yet another game, his seventh consecutive, on Wednesday night against the Bobcats

Via the Detroit News:

Richard Hamilton's severely sprained right ankle is going to idle him at least one more game.

Coach John Kuester ruled Hamilton out for Wednesday's game against Charlotte.

Hamilton isn't walking around with as significant of a limp as he did after spraining his ankle Opening Night in Memphis.  But there's obviously enough discomfort to keep him out of the lineup.

The game notes on ESPN stated that Hamilton was not expected to return within the next week, according to John Kuester, which would have him also missing Saturday's game in Washington and possibly even Sunday's against Dallas.

IT'S OBVIOUS......

That it’s a cover up from management…. DUHHH RIP and Tay are out the door, and we’ll bring in Zandolph. Even though we all know that Eddy Curry would be a better choice.

ohhhh

i would hope so. if we got either of those guys i would probably have to take a hiatus from watching the pistons. i’m hoping we can get RIP back for Sunday against Dallas, even though they say no….

cover up

You don’t cover up guys for trades by claiming they are injured; that makes them harder to trade; especially a herniated disc which can take years to heal. You would put them on the floor and let them score a lot, that increases their value.
Zandolf or Curry would both be horrible choices. How about someone young like JaVale McGee or DeAndre Jordan. Or if someone older, how about Brandon Haywood. My favorite would be to bring the Michigan native Chris Kaman home though.

I don't

actually think we’re trading RIP, watching that first game showed (even if it was Memphis) that he and BG work really well together. I don’t see JD trading Tay either.
There’s alot of good/decent choices we could make as far as a center/pf that can bang goes. I’ll never root for Kamen though, dude played for the damn chips, can’t get worse then that. just kidding dudes got skills
